I am back with another beautiful canvas project for Tres Jolie using the January Mixed Media Kit. I also included the January Scrapbook Kit as well, along with a few other items. I have all the links down below for all the items I used for this project. I really like how this canvas turned out. I hope you enjoy the step by step tutorial below and video tutorial.

So let's get started. The fist thing is to apply Modpodge to the canvas.
Place the Stamperia rice paper on top of the canvas and burnish down
Flip the canvas over and take a paper town with a bit of water on it. Go around the canvas with wet paper towel and pull the excess rice paper away from the edges.
You can also use away any excess paper.
Next I used the distress vintage photo ink and inked the doily from the Scrapbook Kit 2024. Afterward I used a script stamp from my stash to stamp on the side of the doily.
Once I was done stamping the doily I used the versa mark all over the doily.
I then sprinkled the Distress speckled egg glaze all over the doily. This Distress Glaze is found in this month Mixed Media Kit January 2024.
Used the heat tool to set the embossing glaze
Glue down the doily and trim away the excess pieces from the edge of the canvas.
Here you see I painted the Flower Set 1 chipboard piece and the butterfly wings with white paint.
Now use the versa mark on the flower portion of the chipboard piece.
To create a two tone look sprinkle the speckled egg glaze on top of the petals and sprinkle the tattered rose on the lower half of the flower.
Use the heat tool to set the glaze on the flower. I did this process twice to get a more colored look to the chipboard piece.
For the stem of the flower I inked down the stem using Distress vintage photo ink, then took the versa mark inked up the stem and sprinkled pumice stone and heat set it.
Here is the chipboard butterfly I used from the Cardmaking Kit January 2024, I colored in the body with a marker and I will do the same process to the wings as we did for the flower.
Used the versa mark first then, sprinkled on some speckled egg. Now heat set with the heat tool.
Now it's time to decorate. I took two of the ephemera cards from the January 2024 Scrapbook Kit and roughed the edges up and inked with distress vintage photo ink. I placed one a little behind the doily and the horse card sits in front. I placed some foam tape on the spoon to have it raised just a bit. You will need a little piece of foam tape on the back of the charm so it stays in place.
I also adhered down the flower chipboard piece.
Next I cam in with these beautiful flowers from the October 2023 Kit. Here is where you can use past supplies from other kits or use the flowers from this months Scrapbook Kit 2024
I adhered the butterfly chipboard piece and now we are all done.
I hope you enjoyed todays canvas project as I used this January 2024 Mixed Media Kit while incorporating other items from other kits.

Good Morning everyone,
I hope you are having a great Sunday. Today I am sharing a few quick & simple cards I created using the Card Making Club Kit for September. This kit contains pre-made cards with envelopes along with 49th and Market paper & Little Birdie Flowers.
Let's get started -
Here is what I used along with some other supplies from my stash and the Scrapbooking club kit.
The first card is super simple . I used the scalloped tag card. I traced the outline of the card on my pattern paper and cut out two panels for the outside of the card.
After adhering down the panels I trimmed away any excess paper hanging over the edges.
I decorated the from with fussy cutting out one of the butterflies from the paper collection, added some flat back pearls and stamped a sentiment. Now you are finished. Super simple, right?
Our next card is the Pop Up Box Card. This card is simple as well and follows almost the same directions as the above card.
Again you want to trace all your panels on a pattern paper and cut out.
Adhere on all the panels you cut out.
Once you are done adhering the panels you cut out, place tape or glue on the 1/2 inch tab and adhere to the inside of the box. (as shown below)
Now insert the little strips that adhere to the inside of the box. You can paper these with your pattern paper. Simply place glue to the little tabs on the sides of the strips and adhere them to the inside of the box.
The strips should look like the photo below. Now you can decorate with your ephemera. For this pop up box card I used the Scrapbooking Kit with The Plant Department ephemera.
This the finished Pop Up Box card.
Next is the Center Step Card. For this card you are going to pop up the top like a tent and pop up the back, middle and front score lines and the score 2nd score from the back fold down and the 4th score line from back (2nd score line from the front) will fold down as well. It will look like the photo below.
Next measure and cut all your pieces.
Adhere all you pieces and decorate. I used the pretty flowers from the card making kit by Little Birdie. I added lace and a butterfly from my stash.
I hope you liked these quick and simple cards you can create with Septmbers Card Making Club Kit. I love how fast it is to put these together, they come already cut and scored so all you have to do is fold cut your paper and adhere on and decorate to your style, how easy is that.
Thanks for joining me. Hope you have a wonderful week.
Happy Crafting,
Debbie

Today I am sharing my first project using the beautiful Scrapbook Club Kit for September. I used a pre-made explosion box that I had in my stash and decorated it using the Prima Marketing The Plant Department paper, ephemera and flowers from the kit. I hope you like it. I also have a video tutorial for you to view.
So Let get started. Here is the supplies shown below.
Next I measured and cut out the pattern papers according to the sizes I needed for my flaps and lids. I laid down all the papers where I wanted them and adhered.
I decided I wanted a tuck spot. I grabbed my xacto knife and on this piece where the white line is on the paper I cut downward leaving a 1/4 inch space from the top & bottom.
Turn over and place your double back tape around the edges.
Adhere to the flap.
Since this was a pre-made box it had pockets, so I decided to add some flaps. The flaps measured 4 7/8x 5 1/2 score 1/2 inch with 5 1/2 laying across your scoreboard. Adhere the 1/2 inch piece to the inside of the pocket. I did this for all four panels of the explosion box.
In addition to the flap I adhered an insert inside of the pocket. As my photo mats were getting stuck on the inside seams of the pocket.
Now you can place your photo mats inside. Photo measure 5 x 4 3/4 inches.
After finishing adhering down all my papers I decided to create a small pull tab waterfall to fit in the middle of the explosion box.
So you will cut 3 pcs of cardstock at 2 3/4 x 2 inches.
Next cut a piece that is 2 3/4 x 6 1/2 inches. With the 6 1/2 inches across the scoreboard score at 2, 2 1/2, 3, 6 inches. Cut one strip at 1/2 x 6 inches.
Next add a line of double back tape in between each score line as shown below.
Next turn over the piece we just laid dbl back tape on and place a piece a piece of tape on the bottom score line and adhere your 1/2 inch strip.
Next cut a pattern paper for the back do not adhere down. Bring in the sides of the arms from the 1/2 inch strip and glue together in the back.
Once the little arms are folded in place some foam tape on the back of the pattern paper of the waterfall.
Turn over and cover the 3 pcs of cardstock cut at 2 3/4 x 2 inches with pattern paper and adhere down on the strips of double back tape we laid down.
After adding your foam tape to the back, place the pull tab waterfall in the center of the box. Now decorate with the beautiful ephemera from the Scrapbook Kit.
Here is a photo of the lids decorated using the flowers and ephemera along with the finished explosion box. (for more details please view the video tutorial)
Thank you for joining me today. I hope you enjoyed viewing how I decorated this Shabby Photo Explosion Box using the Scrapbook Club Kit for September. I have the link down below for you.
